whosyourdaddy Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 From expats point of view the best pool is the Patumwan Princess Hotel which is attached to MBK. The Pol is very big, 2 jazuzzis, saunas etc. The pool has a special saltwater chlorine so that is it at the exact pH as your eyes so you dont need google. There are over 3000 locals and expats who pay a shit load of money to use the pool and gym there. By far the best!!! But it also helps if you like the same sex as many of the thais are gay@!!!!

chilli13 Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 is the pool as big as the 50m one queted elsewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Jack Posted May 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2003 Says ib13: is the pool as big as the 50m one quoted elsewhere? Ah. Ooops. I slipped up there. The SS Novotel pool's 25 metres (maybe a bit more) from one end to the other. I meant to say that one circuit, up and down the pool, is about 50 metres. jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli13 Posted May 28, 2003 Report Share Posted May 28, 2003 ok then the grace is probably half that & very decent even the staff if any around discourage a night dip, but they don't lock it up so 24h swim possible. nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli13 Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 well if you find a girl who is 'swimming' too you'd make a nice pair in the pool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMAN Z28 Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 I think snooker tables are about the biggest pool tables you will find. But around the Sukhumviht area, I have seen mostly regular 8 ball pool tables. ZMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattaya127 Posted May 29, 2003 Report Share Posted May 29, 2003 Grand Hotel, Suk soi 52, direct path leading from Skytrain, so only a 1/4 mile from the station. The pool is at least 25 meters, maybe 33. The place caters mainly to asian businessmen, mostly japanese, but there is ever hardly more than 2 peopel in the pool at any time, and they have a great sauna too. Used to be 900 bahts, but safer to assume now around 1000/1500 bahts. If I find a pix, i will send it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
